Hello everybody,
In my akai Force a green line has appeared similar to the one that appears on some mobile phones and LCD television screens. You can work, but it's quite annoying to look at. I have tried resetting my Akai by pressing the 30s power button but nothing happens. It has not received any blow or anything like that, it is well preserved. Has it happened to someone else? Is there a way to fix it?
PS: I think my guarantee is expired. I bought it in 2023.

Depends where and how you bought it, I guess. Bought mine with extra years of warranty for a mere $59,= extra.

That being said, get it repaired anyhow, as it will deteriate further, and finally the screen will break down and stops working.

It is an expensive tool, worth repairing and providing a lot of fun!

Good luck!

ps.: I do not know of any way to reset the Force or the screen.....

Find out if the warranty is still good from the place you got it from & get contact Akai. Also asks for help on the MPC side of any forum they had both a Force & MPC section as the it'll be more active.
